Dropped in to the Sydney Leica Store yesterday to pick up an accessory and while chatting with a sales guy learned that sales of the MP are now on hold until the camera conforms to new Australian government safety standards which require that products containing button batteries must have secure battery compartments to prevent children from gaining access to the batteries. According to the ACCC website, in Australia one child a month is seriously injured after swallowing or inserting a button battery, with some of them sustaining lifelong injuries.
What the what now? If I was Leica I’d say fine, you lot only get the M-A….
